Metallic taste with nitroimidazoles (5)
********** 

Dear Dr. Sampada,

Thanks for your comment on query on metallic taste with nitroimidazoles.

I would like to mention that comparison in doses has been made keeping in
view the upper limit of the doses ( metronidazole 800mg TID Vs ornidazole
500mg TID  and metronidazole 2.5g OD Vs ornidazole 1.5g OD  ). I think it
would be better to a have clinicians opinion regarding this issue.

Thanks,
Ms. Sukhpreet
